I could see the point of not allowing "junk" emails, although for a lot of people they are their legit sole addresses...but if the posts are viewed anyway by a moderator before they are posted, how would spamming ever get seen?

At any rate, I'm glad to see the yes vote climbed a bit since I went there...for all the good it does. The vote wasn't a big deal to me, but the ignorant posts hit a nerve...

Well, mine's there right above yours ... but HEY! They omitted my links! Well, maybe I rambled on for too long. Oh well.

I was wondering if that next one was yours...I think you one-upped me. Great job!

No surprise they edited it. At least the core message got out.

For the record, the article in the Infidel library you linked to is an even better argument in detail, but it's probably over the top for that particular "letters to the editor" and the crowd who's reading it.

Thanks! Yeah, I know that article's a bit much for most, but they allowed others to link to other sites. I've got that other article saved as a favorite now, because it's so good!
